what five years of computer science will do to you(rate my gentoo setup :3)@unixsocks

Person holding a Kuromi plush and a pink controller, wearing striped thigh high socks and resting their legs on a desk with a large monitor and a laptop running Gentoo Linux with bspwm. On screen there is code, btop, fastfetch, Niko from Oneshot and multiplayer SM64 with a Hatsune Miku skin.

    I have few things to say.

    • firstly I might be trippin but does your sysfetch say you have 17.4 Gb of RAM? HOW?
    • also I see you're using bash. at this point you might as well try zsh with omz.
    • and why VScode when already you are using neovim (or other terminal code editor)? If you reeeally need the ecosystem try Codium. I doesn't have all the exstenaions but if it has the one you need it is less bloated vscode (and gentoo users hate bloat)

    also the setup is nice ig

    Using bash is saner than any ZSH config out there, fish on the other hand is peak

    @alsaaas @Gwen I've actually looked a bit into fish before, but didn't switchdoes the lack of posix compliance not cause issues in practice? like, has it ever broke some script you wanted to run?

    It's its own language, but it doesn't break existing e.g. bash scripts because you declare them to be bash with #!/bin/bash in the first line right? So your shell doesn't matter. Also you can always nest shells and just run bash if you really need it

    You just shouldn't set it as your login shell because of that, they have tutorials on that on their website and the Arch wiki explains it too

    Uh, check zsh4humans. It is basically fish, but with powerlevel10k terminal skin which is blazing fast.

    Thanks, but I like my sane defaults Rust shell and as a scripting lang, fish is also really nice

    +1 for scripting with fish. Reduced the LOC in my scripts collection by probably 50%, while increasing legibility/maintainability by probably at least 100%. Absolute beast of a lang.

    Curious, do you just play The World Machine edition or do you use some kind of setup to play Oneshot

    Dont know enough to rate your setup but I can rate your lighting in this shot. 10/10 lighting

    Nice Setup and Picture and also the lighting!

    Seriously though, how do you take such pictures? I tried and failed multiple times already. Too dark, bad angles, blinding lights, you name it.

    Do I spot neovim, or do my eyes deceive me?

    Presumably you didn't know that hifetch exists, you can backend it via fastfetch to make it fast. The big plus is that you can give it flag colours.

    @VaporVenger @unixsocks oh I don't actually play like that, I just opened some programs to add a bit of personality to the screen and show off my window manager >_<
